Best Answer

If the load is on a pallet, the forks should be spaced wide enough so that the pallet is stable and will not tilt to one side, so shedding the load. If the forks are set too narrow, the pallet could be unstable and the load may slide off. Not every fork truck driver would bother to adjust the fork spacing, and may try to get away with it. But they should at least take care, keep the load close to the ground and avoid tight turns at too high a speed.

When eating with a knife and fork is it correct to only put a single type of food on your fork or should you mix up foods ie like potato and carrot at the same time?

* The proper etiquette for eating with a knife and fork is the knife is for cutting and the fork for picking up small amounts of foods and the person eating should eat one section of food at a time and not mix all foods onto their fork. Some people will eat meat first; then potatoes; then vegetables while others may do it the complete opposite. It does not really matter in what rotation you eat your food, just don't pile different foods on your fork (with the exception of a salad where everything is already mixed together.)
